ASK Proxima A1200

Advantages: Looks, ease of use, durability
Disadvantages: Everybody wants to play with your phone!

...The Motorola A1200 (also known as the MotoMing) is a mobile phone/pda and is not readily available in the UK at the moment. However, it can be purchased from the likes of ebay from sellers in Malaysia, the USA etc. It's available in three colours (black, white and red) and the colour variation is just the edges and back of the phone. Where to start! OK looks. It looks amazing. There is a see through flip which contains the earpiece. This has tiny wires that go around the edge of the flip and are barely visible. Lift up the flip and you have a large, high resolution touch-screen which is operated with a stylus that fits snugly in the back of the phone (you get two in the box) although you can use your finger for most functions. The coloured bit (sides and back) are made from a high density rubber which doesn't make it look cheap (I can... Read review

Advantages: Huge menu. Trendy, yet comfortable décor. Suitable for every kind of occasion.
Disadvantages: Main course portions rather miserly and over-priced for what you get on your plate.

There are around 10-15 different choices ranging from the better known Four Seasons to a more unusual sounding Fiorentina (spinach, egg, cheese and olives) and the plain old Margherita (mozzarella and tomato). If you're after something a little different Ask offer a couple of Calzone choices - which is basically a folded pizza baked in the oven, topped with garlic butter and melted cheese and containing some kind of filling. If pasta is more your thing, then Ask offer a choice of 10-15 different dishes. There are the old favourites such as Spaghetti alla Bolognese, Ravioli and Lasagne to more innovative choices such as Penne al Pollo Gorgonzola (chicken and spinach in a Gorgonzola sauce) or Ravioli Burro e Pesce (crayfish, crab and salmon in a white wine and dill sauce). I was recommended to try the Spaghetti e Polpette (a... Read review

Advantages: Good food at reasonable prices.
Disadvantages: No food delivery that day!

...Bath city centre has no shortage of restaurants to offer, but many of them close between 2.30pm and 6pm. We had to catch a train just after 6.30pm and realised that we would have to settle for a chain restaurant that stayed open throughout the afternoon. My younger son had taken his girlfriend to Ask a few weeks before and recommended it. I had never been to Ask as we don't have one locally, so I was all in favour of trying somewhere new. When we arrived at 4.30pm that Saturday the place was fairly quiet and as there were three of us we were shown to a table that was intended for four. Before I had even had chance to sit down the waitress was handing out menus but warning us that several things were not available. These included all the main course specials, salmon and ciabatta. I was a little peeved about the salmon, but I presumed... Read review
